ESL Summer Series announced

With the latest amount of cups and storys written in ET's very own history it's time to get a new session up and to rumble the scene with a straight amount of events in our very own Enemy Territory's 1on1, 2on2, 3on3 and ofcourse 6on6 competition area. When you expected a hot summer with hot nights we will bring you even more of this with hot maps and the definitely best config settings on earth.
Again, we offer a free amount of slots for our 6on6 and 3on3 Competition. We will devide a free amount of teams in each division to give each the chance to do their best based on results achived in the ESL and latest results in other competitions.

6on6
The king is dead - Atleast the former line up of the current VAE and former 141.et team who is still on the very top of our last series ranking with winning against n1ce.it, a new season can bring a new team up to the top. According to the choice of playable maps in the past, we have decided to take in the one and only dusty and spammy map in ET back into our pool. For everyone who thought karsiah is playable, we will prove you how playable the old Oasis is. With removing Frostbite and adding Bremen in the latest version, we hope to bring you up some hot games with much of fun playing the cup on your own.

3on3
With multikulti winning against teh smileyz in the last season letting elite and sTREETFIGHTERS right in the back, a new season can bring a new chance for those who didn't get on the top yet. With a new chance of winning, we have also included bremen as a 3on3 map to keep the map pools as similar as possible.

Not so major competitions
2on2 is the future!
Right away nearly one year in the past we have started our international 2on2 ladder and bringing some teams up to have fun playing et together with their best friend. To keep this in mind for everyone, we'd like to present the one and only 2on2 cup.
Best regards
Aim is the one and only thing that matters - NOT. In a tactic shooter like ET even 1on1 players have fun finding tactics and playing a shooter to do their best on the most wanted deathmatch and objective maps.

Rules
With a new season, a new config gets released - not really. We will stick playing with the European config set until we find new settings to shock the whole scene together with the et-cup crew and other organisations who are willing to cooperate.
One major thing most of the people have to watch is the screenshot-rule. Within the ESL and in official matches, screenshots for GUIDs and Rounds have to be uploaded on the website. Not doing so can follow in penalty points.
Also, with forcing autorecord, every player must have ineye demos if they are requested. Admins can request demos randomly as well as the opponent, who does not need any reason for requesting.
During the first stage of each cup, there will be one match each week. The maps will be forced and the teams have to agree on a date right before the start of the matchweeek. The admins will force a date if noone agrees. If a team is unable to show up due to problems, they are allowed to use their wildcard before the starting time of the match.

Where is the god damn IPS?
According to questions coming up each week, we are not allowed to give any details about a second edition of the ESL IPS for ET yet. Please stay tuned and stick praying for us getting atleast one major online tournament with prize money back up soon.

Additional note for banned players
The reason to ban by MBI / MBL entrys (with different other matches in the check) is easy preventing a banned player to keep on playing. To be save, we stick banning them for everyone with a suspicious entry. Still everyone can appeal his ban by submitting a support ticket: Support form
After the 4 weeks, the ban can not be apealed anymore - the cheater rehabilitaion will be the only possible way to go afterwards, this will take 3-4 months.
